1 - INTRODUCTION
Please read carefully the instructions with this symbol before installing and using the instrument.
1.1 - STANDARDS and REGULATIONS
VIP ENERGY2K8 conforms to Directive 73/23/CEE (LVD and 2004/108/CE (EMC .
It has been designed with reference to EN 61010-1, EN 61326 including append. A1/A2/A3, EN 61000-6-2, EN 61000-6-3,
EN 61000-3-2, EN 61000-3-3, EN 61000-3-3/A1, EN 61000-4-2, EN 61000-4-3, EN 61000-4-4, EN 61000-4-5, EN 61000-4-5/A1,
EN 61000-4-6, EN 61000-4-6/A1, EN 61000-4-8, EN 61000-4-8/A1,EN 61000-4-11, EN 61000-4-11/A1.
1.2 - USER SAFETY
In order to preserve these safety conditions and ensure safe operation, the user must observe all instructions and marks
specified in this user manual. All maintenance and repair operations requiring the opening of the instrument must be carried
out only by suitably qualified and authorised personnel. The instrument was shipped from the manufacturing plant in
perfect technical safety conditions.
1.3 - PRELIMINARY INSPECTIONS
Before installation, check that the instrument is in good conditions and was not damaged during transport. Check that the
network voltage and the rated voltage coincide. This instrument does not require an earth connection.
1.4 - PRECAUTIONS IN THE EVENTS OF MALFUNCTIONS
When safe operation is no longer possible, put the instrument out of service and ensure that it cannot be operated
accidentally.
Safe operation cannot be guaranteed in the following circumstances:
· When the instrument appears clearly damaged.
· When the instrument no longer works.
· After long storage in unsuitable conditions.
· After being damaged in transit.
2 - CONNECTION OF THE INSTRUMENT
2.1 - POWER SUPPLY
The power supply connections terminals are located on the rear side and are clearly indicated with the label POWER
SUPPLY. Use cables having a maximum section of 2.5 mm2. Earth connection is not required. Follow the connection
diagram at the beginning of the manual.
2.2 - CONNECTING VOLTAGE MEASUREMENT CABLES
These cables, having a maximum section of 4 mm2, are to be connected to the terminals labelled VOLTAGE INPUT as
indicated in the diagrams at the beginning of the manual.
2.3 - CONNECTING CURRENT MEASUREMENT CABLE
The instrument is able to measure up to 5A only through external C.T. The cables having maximum section of 4 mm2 must
be connected to the terminals labelled CURRENT INPUT as shown in the diagrams at beging of the manual.
Use CT's with 5A secondary. Use cables having a section appropriate to the length of the connection and the rated power
of the CT's used.
Note 1: For safety reasons, never leave the CT secondary open.
Note 2: Important direct connections, without C.T. will damage the inputs.
3 MEASUREMENTS PAGES
At power on the VIP ENERGY2K8 displays the last page selected before the power off . Use the PAG key to scroll through
the different measurements and the SEL key to see the details. See the diagrams at page 1, 2, and 3 for the measurements
pages. The presence of several pages is depending on the connection mode selected into the setup . [Fig.33].

(SETUP menu .
See also the diagram on page 8 reading this chapter
4.1 SETUP PAGE PROTECTION CODE
By default, the access code to set-up pages is not enabled. To enable it, keep the PAG + SEL keys pressed at the same
time for 30 sec. The display will show the page on which the access code must be entered. [Fig.26].
[Fig. 26]
By means of the SEL + SET keys, every digit can be changed and the code can be entered. The initial
factory code , that must be entered the first time is 000000. Confirm and exit from this page by pressing the
PAG key.
Now a second page (with "COD" blinking , identical to the first one, is displayed:
From this page, the access code can be permanently changed, if wished.
In this case remember or make a safe note of the new code somewhere you can find it later on.
To exit from the second page press the PAG key.
IMPORTANT: After the first access to the password page, the request of the code will become permanent.
From that moment on the code must be always entered to access the set-up page.
Avoid to recall the password page, for test purposes, if the code request is not permanently desired.
4.2 SETUP PAGES
To access SETUP pages press the PAG and the SEL keys at the same time. Press the PAG key to access the next page,
press the SEL key to select a digit or a setting. Use the SET key to adjust it.
The SETUP can be protected with a password (see paragraph 4.1 .

Pulse Mode: pulse mode (see paragraph 5.2 .100 mSec = Enable Pulse mode with pulse length of 100
mSec. (see chap. 7.1 for the programming
Relay = The confirmation of this page enable the remote relay control or the alarm mode.
5.1 - RELAYS or ALARM OUTPUT
Choosing relay on page [Fig. 36] enables to go to the programming of the output 1 intervention mode.
[Fig. 37]
Association of the output 1 with a measures for alarm controlling. Press the SET key to choose the relay
option or one of the measures of Tab. 1 at page 9. Pressing the PAG key enables to go to page of [Fig.38].
Note: Some of the measures are not carried out in 1PH, 2PH and 3PH mode.
The selection of the Relay option involves the remote control of the relay output through the commands
sent to the Rs485 serial line. In this case it is not necessary to insert other information : press the PAG
key to exit the SETUP .
[Fig. 38]
Set-up of the upper threshold (H of the selected measure. (Tab.1 . When the measure remain above the
threshold + hysteresis , for a time longer than the requested delay, the relay 1 is closed, range 0 - 999
x 106.
[Fig. 39]
Set-up of the lower threshold (L of the selected measure. When the measure remain below the threshold
hysteresis , for a time longer than the requested delay, the relay 1 is closed, range 000-999 x 106.
[Fig. 40]
Set-up of the hysteresis value expressed as a % (percentage . Admitted value from 0% to 99% of the
alarm threshold. The alarm condition is acknowledged only if the measure become higher than
Threshold*(1+hysteresis%
[Fig. 41]
Set-up of the delay figure output 1 (relay closed The alarm will toggle only if the new alarm condition
persist for a time longer than the delay. Delay figure from 0 to 999 seconds.
5.2 PULSES OUTPUT
Choosing 100mSec (pulse mode at page [Fig. 36] the Programming Mode of output 1 is selected.
[Fig. 42]
Measure corresponding to the pulse output 1. Selectable measures: kWh, kvarh , kVAh.
Cogenerated kWh and kvarh appear when the cogeneration mode is enabled..
[Fig. 43]
Set-up of the pulse length output 1. E.g. : selecting 0.01 kWh value = 1 pulse for 0.01 kWh energy
consumption.
